ABC News
Biden administration officials met with LGBTQ students and families on recent anti-LGBTQ legislation.
Officials from the Biden administration met with Florida LGBTQ students and their families in a virtual roundtable concerning the now-dubbed "Don't Say Gay" bill and other legislative efforts advocates deem anti-LGBTQ.
U.S. Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona and Rachel L. Levine, assistant secretary for health at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, listened to the students and their family members discuss concerns and fears about the impact of such bills.
The two were advised on what resources could be provided to support the Florida LGBTQ community.
"Laws around the country, including in Florida, have targeted and sought to bully some of our most vulnerable students and families, and create division in our schools," Cardona said in a statement.
